Oasis – Whatever
Merlin Otello here with a related book recommendation: The Feud Between Oasis Members Liam and Noel Gallagher. I order this book shortly after it was released in October.

Abounding in minorities, the left is increasingly attentive to hierarchies of respect and vigilant about monitoring them. Abounding in intellectuals, it is increasingly — and mistakenly — inclined to view democracy as a search for truth rather than as a search for consensus; it is prone to cast those who disagree with it, no matter how numerous, as democracy’s enemies and even as authoritarians.
